Can someone tell me the difference between a 1969 427ci industrial/commercial engine and a regular engine? Also would there be any chance on rebuilding this for a performance street motor? Thanks for the help!

where have you heard of this engine?
are you just talking about a four-bolt block opposed to a two-bolt?
a lot of people buy old truck blocks for their cars and they just have a higher deck height

I actually bought a 1969 chevy fire truck that has a 427 in it. The guy I bought it from said it was an industrial/commercial engine but I dont know what he is referring to or how it affects the engine. Thanks for the reply

It has a .400" taller deck height than a car block. The industrial/commercial 366 and 427 cid were commonly known as truck blocks and like 1969SS said, all have 4 bolt mains. These make pretty goon race blocks, th increased seck height allows a easily built stroker.
